Description

Job Description: Farmscape is seeking a full-time urban farmer for Los Angeles. Our farmers steward the management of 10-20 small farms, predominantly within residential landscapes, and will have opportunities to assist on larger urban farms and garden installation projects as well. This position is primarily for gardens on the Westside, though our service territory spans from Pasadena to Thousand Oaks to Pacific Palisades to the South Bay. Farmers typically work within a single region/neighborhood on a given day and carry a 'roving farm shed' in their vehicles. Farmscape farmers work independently at multiple locations throughout the day with the resources, support, and comradery of the entire Farmscape crew.

Company Description: Farmscape is the largest urban farming venture in the country, with headquarters in Los Angeles and Oakland. We design, install, and tend intensive organic vegetable gardens for residences, schools, restaurants, and other organizations. We actively manage 250 gardens in California, turning the city back into a farm one yard at a time!
